NUS researchers have developed a platform that lets lab-grown muscle tissues train themselves to record-breaking strength, ...

Researchers at Duke University have grown the first ever human muscle in a lab that contracts just like naturally grown tissue. Michelle Starr is CNET's science editor, and she hopes to get you as ...

Connective tissue cells can now be transformed into muscle stem cells without genetic engineering. This approach could prove relevant for therapeutic applications in patients with muscle diseases. In ...

Biomedical engineers have grown muscles in a lab to better understand and test treatments for a group of extremely rare muscle disorders called dysferlinopathy or limb girdle muscular dystrophies 2B ...

Serious sports injuries and disease can damage people's muscles and affect their quality of life. But now there is new hope as scientists have created living muscle that not only functions like the ...

Most people who have sweated it out in the gym trying to add a bit of muscle definition to their bodies will know just how difficult such a task is, but trying to grow muscle tissue with a real muscle ...

A microscopic view of lab-grown human muscle bundles stained to show patterns made by basic muscle units and their associated proteins (red), which are a hallmark of the human muscle. Duke University ...

Duke University researchers create living skeletal muscle that looks and acts very much like the real thing -- even down to repairing itself. Then they attack it. Freelancer Michael Franco writes ...
